“Thirty-five years ago, I would have never imagined what was in store. Since our premiere in 1987, it’s been a fantastic journey and incredible experience for all of us. We would not be here if not for the invaluable support of CBS and our millions of fans around the globe for their loyalty and support.”

Her other ex-husbands, Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Bill Spencer (Don Diamont), will be included. But there are a few surprises in store too.
Characters returning for the anniversary episode
It’s been an eventful day for The Bold and the Beautiful fans. Aside from the show’s renewal, viewers were also ecstatic to learn a few characters will be returning for the anniversary episode. Jack Wagner will reprise his role as Nick Marone, while Winsor Harmon will return as Thorne Forrester.
Both men were married to Brooke, and it’ll be interesting to see them sharing scenes with her again.

Although Nick and Thorne’s appearance is for one episode with enough positive feedback, perhaps the show can bring them back permanently.
